[fredintheshed1]

Lovely Karen. Died too young. ;-(

[hopporules]

@fredintheshed1 ..she's still alive dude...age 65,!! :-)

[fredintheshed1]

@hopporules

Sorry i meant Caron Keating who died in 2004.

[myepiphone]

Wow ! she looks even better in 89 than she did in the 60's.

[Brigante7]

What a voice, you can tell she's having fun. Lets see if any of todays so-called superstars are still around in 40 years.

[almccrindle]

what a voice......lady ga ga....this is style even after 40 years plus

[vwtaro]

super!!!!!!

[djebat88]

She aged gracefully. THE voice is still the same. She was awesome and still is.

[Liam2621]

who'd have thought back then that john leslie would do what he did :(

[postcardsoflife]

Always a classic

[hebneh]

I've just seen '60s clips of Helen up till now. And here, she has a completely '80s appearance, just as she first had a really typical '60s look, especially with her eye makeup and bouffant hair then.

[mitzi7416]

she was singing in a church in llandovery a couple of nights ago doing a gospel outreach. is it the same helen?

[housecarl6]

I wonder if that dirty bastard Leslie tried to rape her ?

[AnonInEng]

Funny isn't it, we are looking back to the 80s the same way people in 89 looked backed to the 60. Time waits for no one.

[paisleygerry]

I wouldn't allow the blue peter dog near him !!!!

[scarypowers]

is she lesbian?

[swimmer706]

@scarypowers

No, she is English.

[scarypowers]

@swimmer706 LOL...oh ok, that explains it

[bigtelstheman]

John Leslie, he's the bloke who never raped anybody,lol.

[salstream]

what a fantastic person... and singer

wonderful helen voice

greatest female british performer in 60'!!!

[maputo95]

We saw her perform in a church circa 2005- tremendous!

[rippingdon]

Great to see her showing her fun personality

[AnneCherch]

Helen! Still the greatest!

[kenfig]

Look at Leslie when she says about her mini skirts & legs ; he gives them a good look - dirty rapist bet he would love to have !!

[franklindavid]

She was great, bring back the 60's.

[Cader1dris]

YEAHH BRING IT BACK WOOOOHOO

[OLdies1960s]

She had a unique singing voice that I just love. I wonder if Amy Winehouse was influenced by her sound . Maybe.

[paisleygerry]

Was that dog safe with him ?

[kabogga]

Which dog? Abi Titmuss? Lol!

[80istWithoutBorders]

Yes 1946 = 1st year of baby boomers...

[dontwatchmedancing]

is she related to Binki Shapiro?

[fanchette122]

the voice is he same ....great talent

Is she still alive ? She might be 62 now...

Love you all

Fanchette

[SirBasildeBrush]

Most definately! Yes 62 now. If you want more info send a message to LaVerne37 (see below)

[burnley5960]

Yes she is and yes the voice is as good as ever our greatest female singer no one is a match for her then or now

[billyshaw136]

It's the first record I remember really liking. I was about 11 at the time. I remember a sunny day where we lived at the time, walking to my local comic shop and either hearing it in my head or from a radio nearby and that's what it always reminds me of.

[harel10]

היא מתבגרת נהדר ויש לה קול שהוא הרבה יותר גדול מהשירים שלה.

[JackMDT8888]

Her voice was still a killer.......and the legs also!

[doubts]

Such a shame about Karen Keating. She was so lovely.

The other two presenters turned out to be pretty awful.

[thekarmaboy]

I remember seeing this and my mum walking in and saying "OH Helen you're a bit old to be sqeezing into that mini".LOL

[leoseries]

Helen's mini skirt seems to have been made from sticky-back plastic!

[kokamoa]

Remember seeing this aged 13. The memory of Ms Shapiro's legs has stayed with me ever since.

[LaVerne37]

TEXAS loves "Hegs!!!" THANKS SO MUCH FOR POSTING!!! Great legs!!! 

Tappin' Toes In TEXAS for "Shaps."

[tubeshan]

[seerauberjohnny]

Wow,she was like the Amy Crackhouse of her day!

[PIGGIE58]

Thanks, I have never seen this one.

[bedouinboy]

WOW! that was fab! I think it's great to see Helen being a bit zany.

THANKS for that
